Current training pay for E120 FO/PA31/BE99 is $9.00/unit. BE1900/SA227 is $10.58 and E120 CA is $12.50.

And it isn't as much as I think anyone should be paid Ted,
You have be at a disadvantage, sir, as you seem to know who I am yet remain anonymous to me.

It isn't just AMF management. It's business in general. See my last response on this post below.


frmrbuffdrvr, when does the clock start on when you can get medical benefits. Is it 90 days from DOH or the day you pass your checkride?
It used to be 90 days from DOH. I checked with HR and was told you become eligible the first day of the second continuous calendar month after you are hired. So if someone is hired in November, they would have to work the full calendar month of December and would be eligible the first of January. (I know, it's confusing to me too.)

I didn't know about the change to 40 units when I did my previous post. But that is correct.

Even with the raise we aren't paid what we deserve.
I have never had a job in my life where I was paid what I ultimately thought I deserved. But I was paid what the job was worth. And that is what companies pay for all employees. What the job is worth. And the recent pay raises show that, with the shortage of pilots, the job is becoming more valuable if the company wants to stay in business.

That's reality.
